A fantastic owner-operated hotel with 9 en suite bedrooms, a campsite, and a public bar/restaurant; however, the bar/restaurant has been scaled down in favour of the letting accommodation. On the ground floor are many large reception, dining, and function rooms, together with a substantial skittle alley. In a separate building is a fully working gym and spa facilities with the owners’ spacious 3-bedroom accommodation above. To the outside is a large car park for maybe 100/120 vehicles, several garden areas and 2 level paddocks which are currently used as caravan and camping areas. A full handover of this business will be provided to ensure a smooth transition and continued success.
The Westcountry Inn is situated in beautiful open countryside and sits on the North Devon Atlantic Highway between Bideford and Bude, surrounded by Moorland.

All main arterial road links are nearby, connecting mainline rail connections, the M5 motorway, and the stunning coastal resort of Bude with its beautiful beaches which are within a short drive.
